   It reported:   
      
   XPCOMGlueLoad error for file /opt/thunderbird160/libxpcom.so:   
   libmozalloc.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory   
   Couldn't load XPCOM.   
      
   After some investigation, it turns out that the Thunderbird 16.0   
   directory is missing libmozsqlite3.so and libmozalloc.so .  Both of them   
   are in the Thunderbird 15.0.1 directory, but those versions won't work   
   with 16.0.  I created symlinks to those files in the Firefox 16.0.1   
   directory and now Thunderbird works, but that's more of a temporary   
   workaround than a solution.  I'm wondering why you're not encountering   
   the same problem.  There are the 64-bit versions of TB 16.0 and FF 16.0.1.
